{Elli~Senior 2011}

Ok, so I love this senior with all my heart.  And it not just because she's my new neice.  She is one of the most genuinely nice young woman I have the pleasure of knowing.  And her style & personality are completely unique.  We had such a blast at this session, at one point I was laughing so hard I almost peed my pants. (Remember the dress getting stuck elli?)  And we came away from it with a lot of stories for her mother.  Like getting kicked off some property for trespassing and having old men (30 years old is old to an 18 year old) whistle, cat call, and even take her picture with their own camera.  I present Elli...

Also, I do offer announcements.  Here is what I did for Elli.

{Whitney~Senior 2011}

Although the weather forecast for this session didn't look promising it turned out to be a great day to shoot. Whitney is such a beautiful girl and we were able to get a ton of great shots for her.  Check 'em out...

I'm Back!

Well, I know I fell off the face of the earth but life got a lil' hectic & so I had to take care of first things first, which put my photography on the back burner.  But I'm back and open for booking sessions again & so excited that I am.  I really love this part of my life and have missed it immensely.

I had the opportunity to captured this beautiful family a couple of weeks ago.  It was definitely cold out and I'm so proud of the lil kids for being so good through it all.

{In the Know ~ October 2009}

I hope you savor the lovely month of October. The shortened days are illuminated with the halcyon light of the shifting autumn sun that gives new life to familiar scenery, and the vibrant colors of the season are painted with bold strokes of gold, mulberry, and scarlet across the landscape. Breathtaking, isn’t it?

Autumn is one of the most beautiful times of year to have an outdoor portrait taken. Fall portraits are especially stunning when you wear lovely jewel tones colors, navy blue, hunter green, denim, black, or any combination of brown tones. Consider scheduling an appointment before the season’s colors fade.

This year Captured By Lisa Photography, LLC is participating in the International Charity Model Search to select North America’s Cutest Family, and you’re invited to enter the competition. Many prizes will be awarded, and the grand prize winner receives a new car! You know you’re family’s good looking, now you can prove it. Call the studio to hear about our special contest pricing.  Besides being a fun contest, the International Charity Model Search also raises funds for Now I Lay Me Down To Sleep (NILMDTD). NILMDTS is a 501(C)(3) non-profit organization committed to assisting parents and families going through the difficult time when they experience an early infant loss. NILMDTS connects families with photographers and provides them with a DVD and a reproducible CD of the images of their baby. For further information on NILMDTS, visit www.nowilaymedowntosleep.org.  Last year’s Charity Model Search was a huge success, with 2,000 model’s images entered into the contest and $164,775 raised for the Now I Lay Me Down To Sleep organization.  For more information about the International Charity Model Search, please visit the International Charity Model Search  website.
